>drop out of university without telling my parents
>still live at home
>lie to them every day and pretend I'm going to school
>they will go batshit insane once they find out
>worried sick, no clue what to do
Do I just leave without saying anything? I can't stand waiting for the trainwreck when they find out. I'm afraid one of them will have a heart attack or something. I know, it's my fault, I am depressed loser with no friends and I need your help.

You created this situation. Why did you drop out? You didn't like your university right? Well,you are an adult, so just tell them that you stopped going there because you don't like it. I also drop out my university and still my father can't stand it,but I ignore him and I say him that I am adult and I decide what to do in my life. You will not do something that you don't like,just to have your parents happy

They will find out sooner or later. rather make it sooner. Be a man and tell them of your mistake. You claim to be a loser, so what do you hope to win by not telling them?

I'm currently in college studying for a degree in Medical Technology. I'm not sure of exact salary but I believe its like from 36k-70kish. I'm not sure if its something I want to do. Perhaps I should think about going to grad school too? I'm just not exactly sure if this is a good path to go down.
Any advice?

how did the job hunting with your mom go?
>>
Even though the smartphone generation is turning people into tech illiterates, "fixing computers" is still a child's job, with child job pay.
It's a start to a career path, but it's not a career.
From fixing computers in a retail store, you might move up to customer support for a manufacturer, or helpdesk for a medium/large business.
From there, maybe you'll choose to be a code monkey, or a network guy, or a systems guy.
Those are the careers instead of jobs.

19 year old male Anon living in Sweden.
Recently my friend circle has split up. Most of them now study abroad and some of them have just drifted away because of drama etc.
Always been a pretty social guy, not having any problem socializing or getting to know new people. Would consider my looks 7/10
But I've never really had this problem before where I gotta find a new circle of friends to belong to. Like people that I always can rely on and that can rely on me, just being good bros.
The problem is I don't really know how to go from just friends to good friends since I've always had my group of friends since I was around 12.
What can I say and what can I not say when trying to be better friends.
Like when is it getting weird and when is it just plain boring?
All advice is welcome, just came here for adv since you guys are either brutally honest or just assholes. Better than just trying to make me feel better Reddit-style.

>meet this girl through my friend who just turned 21
>shes also 21

>on the 40 min drive home we talk the entire time and she says she wants to come chill in my apartment after
>the second I step out of my friends car he tears off with her still in it
>later hear that he didn't get laid and he let her sleep in his bed while he slept on the couch at his dads house
>claims that he needed to treat her with "respect" and "take it slow" when theres plenty of stories of this girl not even respecting hersel
>want to go out to same neighboring town next weekend
>gonna hopefully have a 5 stack of cheap mints
>all of my friends are busy with work or other events
Should I hit up this girl in a couple days and try to get her to go out with me friday night, and if so, should I fuck the shit out of her?
problem, I dont have a car and am using my grandpas whose recently deceased, I don't want to drive around all fucked up. I could just ask this girl to drive out there but i'd feel like a fucking bum ass.
I could also just walk down the street to the bar with her but the dudes at the bars in the neighboring town are so fuckin beta that they don't even approach girls, if we go to a local bar she'll get flocked by bros who have more money and are better looking than me.
What do?

I usually confront them right away with the asking their clear definition of what their intention and what they want. It's not classy, i know. But it's effective. Other than that, just leave them grumble as they are.
>>
Look up assertive, aggressive, and nonassertive behavior. And sometimes getting the courage to jsut go up and say hey, I'm not sure what I did to make you angry with me. And I don't really appreciate the way you've been treating me. Is there anything I can do to make it better. Always use I statements and never accuse and use "you" statements.
>>
>>17696918
I do agree with what you're saying, even when confronting the person/people i will never trybeing aggressive myself. But sometimes the direct approach might work better with a stranger. Not with a close friend or relative, in my experience.

Anyone got some fucking advice for chilling down? Nothing ever goes my fucking way, and not to be a cunt but I would like something to go right for once. My dad is a fucking abusive piece of shit, and my mum can't communicate to anyone. I'm stuck in both of their worlds. They expect me to be some kind of saint, who will do whatever they want me to do. But that's not how the fucking world works. I don't want to be like them. I'm sick of being walked all over, and I'm sick of not being good enough for anyone. So yeah any advice to unwind?

I've lost like 10 pounds in the last month and been shitting semi-liquid for a couple of weeks now, though I've been eating normally and feeling fine otherwise.
Any guesses what it could be and whether I should see a doctor?

Don't try too hard.
You can't just do nothing: at the very least, you have to make the approach. But every effort you make is double-edged: it helps, but it also hurts a little. The more you do, the more it hurts, so if you do too much, you wind up actually pushing women away. But again, you can't just do nothing either, because women will assume you aren't interested if you don't show interest. So you have to find a balance point.

Got drunk on both wine and tequila last night with a group of new people and ended up too drunk to coherently use the weed pipe being passed around - I ended up tipping the weed out of the bowl, holding it upside down etc.
Do they all think I'm retarded, or able to write it off as just drunken stupor coupled with extreme nerves as I was with new people?

I've been a furry for the past 10 years basically, went to cons and have a fursona and all that.
I've always been indifferent to anime and never watched any anime in my life except for pokemon when I was a kid. So 2 weeks ago I downloaded Neon Genesis Evangelion and liked it, then I started going on /a/, then started watching Lucky Star and K-On.
Help me I'm attracted to moe anime girls now, not even sexually, just emotionally. I've downloaded like 8 other anime shows and watch them. I don't feel emotionally attracted to any furshit at all anymore, it's like my brain is completely blanking it out, it's not cute to me anymore. I don't get why my brain would just completely switch around like this. I have furry friends that I kind of stopped talking to.
I planned on being a furfag my entire life and I feel like that's over.
I haven't jacked off in 2 weeks and I'm so confused and scared.
What do I do?

Impossible.
I get this weird feeling inside of me that I have to be a part of something like that. Whatever it may be, furry, anime, mlp
something cute I'm missing out on.
I've always had this feeling and it will never go away. I'm not complete unless I am a part of this.
But what this IS changed over the past 2 weeks and it's scary.

Alright. I'm in a long-distance relationship. I literally have only one problem with it - we're perfect in every other way:
Whether we're on the phone or typing, I always have to do all the fucking talking. It's probably 90% from me. It makes me want to hold her by her shoulders and violently shake her.
Note that I said there aren't any problems other than having to carry the convo -- meaning I don't detect disinterest or disengagement at all. In her own ways, she more-than-enough affirms interest, loyalty, all that good stuff.
It's even she who's always beckoning me to come and talk - nothing suggests that what I'm saying falls flat on her; regardless, I'm sick of having to do all the fucking work. I've gently brought it up and she understood (and demonstrated that she understood the point) but days later, it's back to turning into a mute.
It's making me want to pull my hair out. Help. (Please.)

Try again, the fact that she tried to talk more after you confronted her means she cares at least a little bit, so there's a chance that she just needs more reminding. If it does not work, the relationship is probably ruined, because communication is the most important aspect of a relationship, besides trust imo
>>
>>17696760
I knew fundamental communication issues would be suspected, which is why I tried to delicately point out only one aspect of them is falling short -- everything else is perfect for a reason. Despite that we are very very personal with each other, and the relationship is pretty much as perfect as can be for a LDR couple.
I hope that makes sense: the amount of talking is the only problem, yet it's not a symptom of what it usually would mean for other people. As unlikely as it sounds, that's the truth.
I reminded her that I love hearing from a lot by citing very unique traits and things from long ago which impressed her (she didn't think I'd remember and some things she never had noticed). I braided the point in an intelligent way. She knows I value hearing from her. I thought I drove the point home. And yet she still won't talk too much.
Any smart ways to bring it up again? Any fresh ideas?
Thanks for the input so far though.
>>
>>17696853
Was it always like that? Does it happen when you meet, or is it only a thing when you're not together?
